No child comes to Melrose Home by choice. Residential care sits within a wider system of support and protection for children and youth. Wherever possible, the priority is for children to grow up safely within a familial environment.
But every child’s circumstances are different. Sometimes, residential care is the safest and most appropriate option.
That’s where Melrose Home comes in – providing a safe and stable place to live, with the professional care and support they need to heal, grow and gain independence.
